Agreed - I believe "Divergent Versions" was the title I originally proposed for that workshop.

Sadie: since we are up on Thursday morning, and you offered to work with me on that, can you either PM me or email me so we can coordinate? I see that someone else is doing an entire Child#200 workshop so we should leave that ballad alone. Since I am new to this event I don't know what others might have been recently exhausted. A few suggestions: Barbara Allen, Sprig of Thyme, Twa Sisters; and for a non-Child-ballad, how about the family of songs in which the sailor/soldier returns in disguise and tells his waiting love that her lover is dead just to test her? (Roud 264,266,622,714,960: Pretty Fair Miss in her Fathers Garden, Servant in her Master's Garden, Mantle so Green, Banks of Claudy, Plains of Waterloo, etc).
